[net.taxes] IRS audit for OYOC year

nucomp@ihuxb.UUCP (agc) (04/11/85)

INFORMATION FOR ALL OYOCs FILING TAXES AS SCHOLARSHIP:
My name is Artie Chang, and I have just been audited for my
OYOC year (1983).  I followed the lead of people like Bill
Dietrich, and claimed my salary as a scholarship.  I received
a sizable return, HOWEVER, I also just got audited.  The
auditor not only said my salary was not a scholarship, but she
said it was completely taxable (no educational deduction or
business expense).  I am going to appeal the decision, but
need HELP.
HELP:
If anyone knows any more information about this situation, 
please call or send mail to me.  I need to know things like:

1) What other OYOCs filed this way, where audited, and past
   without being audited?
2) What where the names of the auditors that accepted the
   salary as a scholarship?
3) Does Bell Laboratories have an official stance on this
   matter?  Will they generate a letter stating the salary was
   indeed a scholarship?
4) Where there any court cases that where in favor of the
   OYOC?

Please send me information if you have nay.  I will post the
results of my appeal on netnews.
